Achieve Cleaner Lacquer Coats with Tamiya 87198

Model makers wanting cleaner lacquer coatings can use the Tamiya 87198 Paint Retarder to slow the drying process. Its action smooths brush marks and helps paint films level out for a better surface appearance.

How to Mix and Apply

Mix the retarder into lacquer paints up to a 1:10 proportion (retarder to paint). This lets you tweak the drying behaviour for fine details or larger areas depending on the job.

Practical Use and Size

Supplied in a 40ml bottle, the retarder suits hobby projects from scale vehicles to painted figures where lacquer finishing is required.

No. This retarder is intended for lacquer systems and is not suitable for water based or acrylic paints.
When used as directed, the retarder modifies drying time without changing the lacquer's adhesion, but always test on a sample before main application.
The product is supplied in a 40ml bottle. Coverage depends on how much you mix into paint and the size of your projects.
Use smaller amounts for brush work, apply thin coats and allow longer drying between layers to avoid runs while improving surface level.
